Right....that's it...never again....I am the frigging worse at predicting boxing matches.

Groves was just ok.....Eubank can't fight boxers and looked just as amateurish as he did against Saunders.....totally overestimated Eubank.....just not as good as his Dad.

Groves was better than OK. A lot better than OK.

Controlled the range and pace of the fight. Showed incredible defence to negate Eubanks close quater attacks.

The whole tournament would lose credabilty.

Boxing is not like footie where a game will go ahead regardless of injuries.

What? You mean avoiding and tying up that wildly swinging maniac?

I wasn't overly impressed by Groves personally.

When facing a wildly swinging maniac, avoiding and tying up are exactly what you should do.

What I saw was that Groves could box and Eubank can't.....I made the mistake in thinking Eubank had learned something.

Oh hum, the better man won.....onto the next semi.

I wanted Eubank to win, but Groves controlled the fight from the start.

I was waiting for Junior to pile the pressure on and get closer to Groves but it didn't happen. Give credit to Groves for not allowing that to happen maybe, but I thought Eubank looked reluctant to do what he needed to until it was too late and he didn't have the power in his punches at that stage.

Msybe with Groves injuring his Shoulder they should let Eubanks fight the winner of the Callum smith fight with the winner of that fighting Groves.

the tournament would lose credibility with that idea. Groves may just need a bit more time to recover.

Groves pretty much controlled the fight, and he has remarkable strength. Not a remarkable/spectacular fighter, but he does everything very well.
Eubank came up short on stamina and ideas.

Naz bang on the money, chris is an exciting fighter with a great engine and a good chin but his boxing fundementals is s*** along with his IQ, he's a brawler with no power. Groves wasn't great tonight and still made it look easy.
Eubank has to go back down but who does he fight? Saunders will box his head off, jacobs will stop him, Canelo will body him, and GGG will molester him.

Canello and Triple G!? Do me a favour. He’s far to young to die.
